that's china.... look at the words..
i know it's funny, but i hate everyone who think every weird stuff come from japan, there are also some weird stuff come from Chinese, Taiwanese and Korean. Learn your **** before u post OP..

It may be due to the fact that English is my first language, but yes. I have a hard time memorizing different characters for every single word: I'm better with having an alphabet, and spelling words phonetically with grammar.

That, and I have a bad memory in general, which also probably contributes to this fact.
